Eat Lead: The Return of Matt
Hazard Goes Gold and Preps an All New Adventure This Summer on Xbox LIVE Arcade
and the PlayStation Store

Retirement is put on hold as Matt
Hazard has gone gold in the new D3Publisher (D3P) videogame Eat Lead: The Return
of Matt Hazard. This third-person shooter with a sense of humor explodes into
retail store shelves for the Xbox 360 and PLAYSTATION 3 on March 3rd.

In Eat Lead, players will take on
the role of quintessential videogame star Matt Hazard, voiced by Will Arnett
(Arrested Development, 30 Rock) and his goal is to stop the evil mastermind CEO
Wallace “Wally” Wellesley voiced by Neil Patrick Harris (How I Met Your Mother,
Dr. Horrible’s Sing-Along Blog), from calling “Game Over” forever to the classic
hero.

With nothing but his lovely “QA”
helper from above, Matt is pitted against a vast back-catalogue of Marathon
Software enemies that Wally has in his disposal from zombies, western cowboys
and even a JRPG swordsman named Altos Tratus. Luckily for Matt, with such a
illustrious videogame career, one is bound to make friends with some well known
characters like Captain Carpenter and Master Chef, who help Matt along the way
with some much needed power-ups and advice.

Developed by Vicious Cycle, Eat Lead
is currently rated “T” (Teen – Language, Mild Suggestive Themes, Violence) by
the ESRB. For more information on Eat Lead: The Return of Matt Hazard, please

his legendary career can take off. “It’s Hazard Time” once again on Xbox LIVE
Arcade for Xbox 360 and the PlayStation Store for PLAYSTATION 3. Matt has 8-bit
by its balls!
